Things You Will Need & Where

  • a piece of bark from a fir tree - You will get this during the quest.
  • a fir talisman - You will get this during the quest.
  • some holy water - You can hold water and have a Cleric bless it or get it from various other places around the Realms.
  • a carving knife - You can get one of these from the kitchen in the Tenderfoot Inn's Kitchen. The Inn is located in Jadewater Mansion. Once in the kitchen nod at the Cook and read or SKIP what he has to say then ACCEPT the carving knife when he offers it to you. Then you can leave or continue to read what he has to say.

You will have to go to the Fir Tree in front of the old Warrior Mage's Guild near Crossing. To get there from outside the Northeast Gate, go Southeast, East, and East. Once there you will have to PULL TREE until you have a piece of bark from the tree. Now you will have to go to an area near Shard (Dead Animal Trail, past the stile), and Enter at the wall. Make sure both of your hands are empty and PUT RIGHT HAND IN FIRST HOLE, then get your bark out and make sure it's in your Right Hand then PUT LEFT HAND IN SECOND HOLE, then put your bark away and get the Holy Water without it being in a container in your Left Hand then PUT RIGHT HAND IN THIRD HOLE. Go west from here and past the stairs, make sure you have the bark in your right hand and GIVE BARK TO MAN; you will receive a talisman in return. Leave the area completely.

Now, with your talisman in your right hand and nothing in your left. RUB MY TALISMAN until it is attuned to you. Then with your carving knife in your right hand and your talisman in your left hand, CARVE MY TALISMAN until you are bringing out the 'fine details'. At this point your Talisman is completed.

Notes:

  • At the fir tree, you can pull off up to three pieces of bark a time. Since there is no cost in coin, you may as well get three pieces of bark to help ensure you get the type of familiar you want.
  • Similarly, when you reach the old man in the temple, you can give him all the bark on you and walk out with up to three fir talismans.
  • WARNING: Be careful about putting your hands in the third hole. If you do it incorrectly (the wrong hand, or the wrong item in your other hand), you'll come back with nothing but a stump, and won't be able to continue until you get it healed.
